Apple find

Sorry I don`t have a baby picture to Post.
I`m in another small town close to Nagano working on a farm. IT started out a bit rough, working long hours under the sun, but it`s ok now and I`ve adopted a Lee Kelbert esque farmers tan. Hey, it really is a farmer`s tan!
I basically pick apples, so Wes and Sarah I feel closer than ever to Johnny Appleseed, and people may one day say that I lived for others as well.
Just a quick update.
Cheers.

Wes, that was beautiful. May I have permission to use your quote?

Andrew, as I ate an apple yesterday, I was thinking of you. Andrew, you are a risk taker and I love U for that. Keep dreaning and seeking God's way to lead and take those risks. He will provide the wisdom to make the sound judgements you will need to make as you come home and begin setting in place life after college. Mom and I are very proud of you. Look forward to seeing you.

If I could take a guess I would say that you are picking Fuji apples, am I right?

Was it you that used to say "APPLE FIND" ? I think it was! How prophetic that you are there in Japan literally finding apples. Man, Jimmy Lester would be all over this.
